Twirlywoos - Series 1: 14. Gone
Stop-motion preschool programme. The Twirlywoos find out what happens when a toy train goes into a tunnel, and have some trouble with disappearing tea.
The Twirlywoos are at a children's play centre, where they watch a couple of boys playing with a toy train. The train goes around a track into a tunnel, where it disappears from view - only to reappear on the other side. When the boys leave, the Twirlywoos come out and investigate the train. Chickedy and Chick jump into one of the carriages and are carried along into the tunnel. Great BigHoo and Toodloo wonder where they have gone and then are delighted when Chickedy and Chick reappear on the other side of the tunnel. Toodloo leaps on too and they go back around and into the tunnel again as Great BigHoo is left to wonder where they have gone. As the train comes back out of the tunnel again, Great BigHoo jumps onto the last carriage and the train continues round the track, weighed down by all the Twirlywoos. Unfortunately Great BigHoo is too large to fit through the tunnel and the train gets stuck! The Hooter sounds and the Twirlywoos fly away, taking the tunnel with them. It falls down and lands on the train, which continues to go around the track with the tunnel perched on top of it.
The Twirlywoos are having tea, but unfortunately the tea machine is misbehaving. Chickedy and Chick pump the tea up, but when they go to fetch the teapot, the tea sinks back down the pipe and disappears! Toodloo has a go but the same thing happens to her. Finally Great BigHoo tries it, and when he sees the tea start to disappear, he sits on the pump! Finally, the tea stays up, and Chickedy and Chick bring the teapot.
